I closed my bank account between the first stimulus and second stimulus so they were not able to deposit my second stimulus. On the irs faq page it said if your account is closed they will not send a paper check and to claim it on your taxes so that’s what I did but I received a check about a week after I filed. It has been accepted but I was just wondering if anyone knows what will happen or what I should do? Thanks!

The IRS has not addressed this yet. They will not open until February 12 and at that time they will start to see situations like yours. You would not be able to amend until that time and in the meantime, they may establish a guideline.
